The most elaborate preparations
have already commenced for the il
Illumination of the city during the
Minneapolis exhibition. Work has
also been progressing for several weeks
to get the colossal building in order
that there is every indication that it
will be one of the greatest shows on
earth. Two great features this year
rs last will be the art gallarv and the
music. The former Will completely
eclipse that Of last year in splendor,
the magnificent gems to be exhibited
exceeding those Of last year in value
more than five times oyer. Instead Of
one musical organization Of fame, this
year there viii be no less than three.
and yet judges Of music, and those
who know confidently, predict that
the home talent, the Minnesota com

Of the twin cities will exceed in eject

no repetition Of that delightful state

and on the first day Of the present
exhibition everything will be in place
the first day just as on the last.

Just So Now let rs carry this
reasoning a little further and see what
the effect would be on dear old Super
Tor. The object lesson used by the
News is the proposed new double
track low grade railroad to connect
st. Paul and Minneapolis with the
head of Lade Superior in the most di-
rect manner and quickest run. The
News assumes that this road is going
to haye its lake terminus at Duluth.
and therefore, Daluth is the point
that Is going 10 be most benefited. But
the News assumes too much as usual.
The road mentioned is not going TO
Duluth at all and has never thought
OF such a thing. The road will run
direct from It. Paul to Superior,
striking Superior bay at some point
near the Nemadji RIVER, and this will
be the nearest 1t will eyer get to Du-
luth, a distance Of some eight miles.
The road will no doubt have side
track or other transfer facilities for
reaching the Duluth side of the bay
to Accommodate the business demands
Of that town, but the idea Of running
the main line there Is purely imagin-
airy on the part OF the News. Duluth

The following quotation and an
swer we find in the Pioneer Press Of
of last Monday. 1t comprises but a
few lines, yet it speaks volumes, more
than the best oratars or authors could
enunciate in a lifetime taking up any
other theory. 1t is rum, and nothing
but rum, that Is causing all the trouble
in Ireland. 1t keeps the people in
poverty. 1t keeps them in poor health.
1t keeps them unhappy and quarrel
some! 1t keeps them Disconnected with
their lot, and instead of looking in the
right direction-to their own habits
and conduct-for the desired relief,
they pounce down upon the govern
ment, and all Of that class of people,
who are better off and happier than
themselves, it matters not whether in
Ireland, England, or America. Rum,
the ayowcd enemy Of all mankind, Is
the cause Of all Ircland's woes. Home
rule, with rum included, will never
better their condition. Abolish rum
and they will be prosperous and happy
under their present system Of govern
ment. But we only intended to give
the quotation without comment. Here
it is, let all read it:

Tom,' the pianist, shall be delivered on
or before August 16 into the custody of
Mrs. Ellen Bethune, who represents
Charity Virgins, the mother of Blind
Tom, and that James s. Bethune. who
has had charge of him, shall at the same
time pay over to Mrs. Bethune the sum

been in the courts several years, and
has attracted considerable attention
from the fact that Tom has been held as
chattel by the Bethunes ever since his
musical genius made him valuable. The
suit was brought in the interest of his
mother to regain possession of him.
